Earlier people were talking about having one simply be able to do
(use-modules (ice-9 readline))
and then have readline support by dynlinking in libreadline.so
I haven't seen any comments that indicates this plan was dropped.
Perhaps the 'guile' binary could link in readline by default (at run
time) if stdin is a tty, or if given a flag etc. This would restore
the old behavior for users of the guile binary while not causing
licensing issues for libguile.
